About the Capital.
LANSING, February IA, 1887.
Thus far little less than 400 bills have
been NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. 275 in the house
and about 40 in the senate. OF these
$50 have been ordered printed, either
through having been recommended by the
various committees to which they were
referred, or by the house or senate for the
benefit Of the committees interested.
No pnblic act has yet been signed by the
governor, although several have been
passed. He has, however,si signed four joint
resolutions and 10 private acts. The sen
ate has passed some 20 bills and the house
about a. A few have been killed by strik-
ing out all after the enacting clause, but as
only eight days will remain after the re-
cess in which to introduce bills, IL is prob
able that the motion of the legislature.
both as respects passing and killing. will
he faster Now much time Is spent in COM
mittee of the whole over. private acts.
When matters of great Importance begin
to press, these will be acted on by an expla-
nation from the introducer of the Till and
yea and nay vote, without debate.
The churls may grumble and find fault
because the legislators are enjoying
themselves at the state expense,
but it's really money in the treas,
ury in the long run, inasmucE as this va
cation is taken inside the 80 days allowed
by the constitution for the introduction
OF bills, as the number to be acted upon
will certainly be reduced. and therefore
more time be given for their considera-
ton. IL is not probable that this will ma
terlally affect the length OF the session,
but there Is something wonderfully Jleas-
ing in the thought that matters of consid-
cradle Importance will not be rushed
through with rush and bang.
In reference to the bill proposing to
equalize soldiers bountes tbs quarter
master generals Office furnishes the fol-
lowing figures From the records in the
office it is ascertained that up to October,
1868, a total OF Sill men had been paid
state bounty of $50 each, the aggregate
amount being S405, $50. Up 10 October,
1854. there were 5S24 men paid n bounty
OF 500 each, aggregating S5c2, 400. From
that date up to October. 1865, when boun-
ties ceased, 4.645 men were paid Sl59 each,
aggregating $500, $50. The state paid these
men In bounties n total of s1,6S4,1OO. 1t Ia
now urged that those who received no
state bounty should be placed on the Same
footing as those who enlisted later and
did not serve so long Michigan furnished
90000 men. and according to the above
figures 7l.420 of them received no state
bounty. To give each one of these $50, the
highest state bounty received by any one,
would require l0,1l5000. To further
equalize IL, the Sill men who were paid
ESQ bounty should have an additional $lOO,
and this awarded would take $Sll,10o To
give the 5,S24 who received 500 an addi-
tional $50 requires 1921, zoo, making total

trade for the northwest for 1886 The
grand total of white pine lumber produced
was 1923 5000 feet. This is $40 0OO,OOJ

The Toll acco Crop.

The department of Agriculture
crop report for May has the following
information tobacco is the only
crop the area of which is reduced
wherever grown. At ruling prices it
is unremunerative in New England
and Pennsylvania, and considerable
portion ofits area is being devoted to
small crops; Maryland, Virginia and
North Carolina show heavy decline,
the area in the first State going to
grass, and in the others to grass and
the spring cereals together Some
counties in these States report that
the acreage will fall to 80 per cent,
and in some cases even more. The
falling off in Tennessee and Kentucky
is general though not so heavy, the
area being given to miscellaneous
crops. In no section does there APP
pear to be any corresponding increase,
correspondents generally stating that
under existing conditions it is not a
paying crop.

Remedy for the "Chintz Bug ON Corn.

Remedy for the q" Chintz Bug'' on Corn.
Kerosene Emulsion. Dissolve fb.
common soap in one gallon of water.
Boil this and add it boiling hot to two
gallons of kerosene oil. Churn the
mixture with force pump and spray
nozzle for about ten minutes, until a
perfect emulsion is formed and the
liquid adheres to the surface Of glass
without oiliness. Dilute this by adding
nine parts of cold water to one part of
the emulsion
This should be sprayed on the in
insects on the corn and ground. A
convenient way is to arrange some
sort of a tank on sled in the tank
have the force pump with short piece
of hose and spray-nozzle. As the tank
is drawn along the spray can be di-
rected in the proper places. This is
for a simple constructed apparatus,
Many different kinds of hand and
horse power spraying machines are
manufactured. Care should be taken
to have a perfect emulsion, as other
wise the kerosene is injurious to plants.
This remedy was suggested by Prof.
Riley, of Washington, and used by
the State Entomologist of Illinois with
perfect success.
To any one who tries this remedy
carefully, l will be obliged if they

manner of application and results to
